Trim/Tilt Switch on Bow Not Working

[drunkensailor01]

My engine Tilt switch up by my trolling motor mount is not working anymore. The one on the throttle and the one on the cowling both work fine.

Has anyone had this problem? Do you think they are wired in series or totally separate switches? I will be calling the manufacturer on Monday to try and find out.

My first guess is the connections or switch has gone bad. Connections are fine and I lubed them up with di-electric grease just to make sure.

Any ideas?

I bet its a bad switch. Take the wires off and clean them. Thats what i did on my old boat. It was loaded up with salt. Use a tester light to see of juice is going through the switch!
